abstract: A multi-task learning approach to variable selection regression with highly
  correlated predictors and sparse effects, based on frequentist statistical inference.
  It provides statistical evidence to identify which subsets of predictors have non-zero
  effects on which subsets of response variables, motivated and designed for colocalization
  analysis across genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and quantitative trait loci
  (QTL) studies. The ColocBoost model is described in Cao et. al. (2025) <https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.04.17.25326042>.
